These 36 roads will undergo pavement preservation in Macomb County this summer

The Macomb County Department of Roads announced the roads that will be targeted for the pavement preservation program, with three dozen primary and local roadways to see work.

According to the department, the program uses a mix of preventative maintenance and rehabilitation solutions including asphalt and concrete repairs, crack sealing, chip sealing and other resurfacing measures.

“The Department of Roads uses a full mix of comprehensive maintenance strategies and makes data-driven investments to enhance the quality and longevity of our roadways,” Macomb County Executive Mark A. Hackel said in a statement.. “The pavement preservation program reflects our commitment to delivering cost-effective and sustainable solutions for the motoring public."

“Performing preventative maintenance work on roads that are in good to fair condition is a strategic and cost-effective way to improve and extend the service life of our roadways,” MCDR Director Bryan Santo added. “Identifying and addressing minor issues before they turn into significant concerns reduces the need for reconstruction work and the high costs associated with major projects.”

The schedule for each project will vary based on location, and they are typically completed within three weeks of work starting. Roads will remain open to traffic with intermittent lane closures and flagging when possible.

Below is a list of the projects.
